Using *used* cooking oil for fuel is crucial because it doesn't compete with the food supply, unlike 'first-generation' biofuels made from fresh vegetable oils.

As a rule of thumb, every 1 liter of UCO recycled into biodiesel prevents about 2.5 kg of CO2 from entering the atmosphere. Track your sales to see your positive impact grow!

Scientists are developing 'third-generation' biofuels from algae, which can be grown in non-arable land and yield far more oil per acre than traditional crops, promising an even more sustainable future.

Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) is a 'drop-in' fuel made from sources including UCO. It's one of the most promising ways to decarbonize air travel.

Most modern diesel engines can run on B5 (5% biodiesel) without any modification. Many can even handle B20. Always check your vehicle's manual before using higher blends.

Biodiesel producers perform a titration test on UCO to measure its free fatty acid (FFA) content. This determines how much catalyst is needed for an efficient reaction.

The exhaust from a vehicle running on high-blend biodiesel often has a pleasant, slightly sweet smell, reminiscent of french fries or donuts, due to its plant-based origin!

Decentralized energy production from local sources like UCO makes communities less vulnerable to global oil price shocks and supply chain disruptions.
